Coffee latte-art is a pattern made of milk on a cappuccino or latte. There are many techniques for flower drawing, which are mainly divided into two types: freehand flower drawing (Free Pour) by controlling the height and shaking range of the milk pot, and using sharp objects such as toothpicks or thermometers to draw flowers with milk foam or sauce (Etching). This time, please come to Laisao Nigel to give you a demonstration.

Milk first and then pull flowers

To pull out a beautiful pattern, the milk must be dense, with fine foam (Microfoam), and hit as thick and smooth as velvet, with a reflective surface in order to pull out a complex pattern. Too much foam, too big, or foam does not blend with milk, can not pull flowers.

How to make a good foam?

First, pour about 175-200cc frozen milk (about 4oC, preferably just out of the refrigerator) into the 350cc milk pot, accounting for 3 portions of the milk pot. Then turn on the steam stick for a few seconds, drain the water from the stick, and then put the nozzle into the milk, as long as it is just covered by the milk noodle, do not put too deep and deviate from the center point. After putting it away, turn on the steam stick and start to inhale. If you see a beautiful whirlpool and hear a crisp "squeak" sound, you are in the right position.

When the foam is initiated, move the kettle down gently to keep the nozzle on the surface of the milk. The amount of foaming is recommended not to exceed 25%. After the foaming is finished, raise the milk pot a little bit so that the nozzle is inserted into the depths of the milk and continue to create a whirlpool. The action is to break down the bubbles into dense microbubbles and heat the milk to 60-65oC. When the lactose in milk is heated, it will produce sweetness, if it exceeds 75oC, it will be scorched, and the sweetness and stability will decrease. When finished, take out the steam stick and clean it with a semi-wet towel immediately.

Flower drawing emphasizes the stability of gestures and milk pouring speed, you can start with the basic heart-shaped pattern. Can you pick it up first? The cup of coffee is tilted and the milk is poured in at the deepest point in the middle. When you pour, pull up the milk pot to create a high and thin column of water, and at the same time mix the milk and coffee in circles. When the cup is full, lower the milk pot and get the pacifier as close to the coffee surface as possible, then the flow rate of the milk foam will slow down. You can gently shake the milk pot left and right with your wrists until the cup is 90% full. Pull the milk pot high so that the milk pillar is young and push forward at the same time to form a heart-shaped pattern. If the surface of the coffee turns white when you pour in the milk at the beginning, it means that the foam is too thick or too thick, practice milking again.
